Do you find it difficult to trim down? Try adding yogurt to your diet. It contains conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), fatty acids that block fat storage and revs fat burn. Based on studies, CLA target visceral fat, a stubborn belly flab linked to heart disease. And here’s an added perk, mix it with blackberries and fade your spider veins. For a refreshing smoothie, try this recipe.
In blender on medium speed, puree 1 cup fresh blackberries, 12 oz. vanilla yogurt, 1/2 cup apple juice and 1 cup nonfat milk 30 seconds, or until smooth. Sweeten with sugar to taste. Garnish with fresh blackberries.
Popcorn is a favorite snack of my kids, not just at the movies but even at home. We used to go to the cinemas almost every weekend to watch the latest flicks but when things started getting tight and watching movies got a little expensive, we watched the flicks at home instead. Of course it’s still fun because we’re all together and we still have the kids’ favorite popcorn.
I used to buy boxes of microwave popcorn until I found a popcorn machine online. It’s a good thing I insisted on purchasing it because it turned out to be more fun. The kids love having freshly made popcorn and they love that they can have a little of everything. I bought several popcorn flavorings and they love experimenting with a mix of flavors. Who would have thought cheddar and sour cream would turn out to be delicious? But the real blockbuster with my kids is the butter and soy sauce flavor. You can’t find that flavor in cinemas, or any where else for that matter. It’s my son’s experiment which became everyone’s favorite. Tomorrow, I’ll suggest adding a hint of lemon. It sounds good and I can almost smell the aroma of butter, soy sauce, and lemon. I can’t wait!
You maybe thinking of a very hi-tech system, but what I’m really talking about are intercoms. When my husband installed our wireless doorbells, he also installed a wireless intercom in every room of the house. This makes communicating very easy for everyone. I wouldn’t need to shout to call everybody down for dinner. I can reach anyone from anywhere at anytime. My husband made sure that I could buzz anytime for help, and that is very often. If you think the interior got so much attention, let me tell you about the exterior.
We have a front and back gate. You can enter from these as our lot runs from one street to the next one. Both our gates got their own outside intercom. I can easily know who’s outside. Friends usually pass through the rear gate while visitors use the front gate. I don’t have to peek or go out to see who’s at the gate anymore. This wireless communication system has made life a whole lot easier for me. No more running several flights of stairs just call everyone for dinner or lunch. I don’t have to run to the gate to see who’s there. Wireless communications have entered our homes. It is something we should utilize to its fullest potential. It’s a time-saver and make homemakers like me have an easier life.
